2025 Crypto Outlook: Record Highs Expected for Bitcoin and Ethereum

The cryptocurrency market is set for a potentially record-breaking 2025, with analysts forecasting major milestones for Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

Steno Research predicts Bitcoin could soar past $150,000, while Ethereum might exceed $8,000, fueled by favorable economic conditions, increasing liquidity, and post-halving momentum.

Institutional interest is expected to hit unprecedented levels, with U.S.-based ETFs alone projected to attract $48 billion for Bitcoin and $28.5 billion for Ethereum.

Ethereum is anticipated to outperform Bitcoin, with its ETH/BTC ratio potentially doubling to 0.06.

This shift could usher in a strong altcoin season, reducing Bitcoin’s dominance from 57% to 45%, as tokens like Solana and other DeFi projects gain traction. Steno also suggests that Trump’s presidency could favor altcoins by encouraging robust on-chain activity.
